Welcome to Newport Living and Lifestyles I’m Christon and we are here for the

second year in a row with Nancy Piffard from the Newport International Boat Show. Welcome

I know, it is our second year working together, thank you.

Give us the overview of the Boat Show and if there’s anything special and new this year.

Let’s see it’s our 49th year, so that’s pretty special, since next year is our 50th and

we are chock-full of new boats, power and sail, and you know

everything from cruisers to inflatable dinghies so we have everything you can

imagine, on the site, we open on September 12 and run through the 15th and come on down.

How many people usually attend the show?

I’s about 40,000 people that come in over the four days and that includes, you know, the exhibitors

who are coming from 20 countries are represented, and they bring all their

staff too, so when you add it all up it’s easily over 40,000.

That’s great, now that could be a problem for parking, but you guys have that all taken care of.

I mean it’s a great economic boost to the city of Newport and the State during that time.

We have a parking program at Easton’s Beach which is only

a mile and a half away and with your parking space which is from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.

you have free shuttle service right to the show site and back so that

really works well for people. To Park is $25 a day.

How much are tickets? so when they get there do they need of pre-purchase can they purchase onsight?

You can either you can do either pre purchasing is a convenience and there is

a bit of a little discount if you order in advance or you can just come right to

the gates, there’s a seven gates, 4 places selling tickets and they’re $22

day of, and they are $17 if you order in advance.

That’s great for whole families to come and spend the whole day, the whole weekend.

Yes and children under 12 are free any day of the show.

What kind of venues to do you have for the children to eat?

We have Wally’s hot dogs this year,

That’ll be great for kids and we have Pranzi’s Catering, we have

Flat Waves with tacos, so there’s a lot on sight. Not to mention we are

right in the heart of downtown and there’s restaurants on our site.

What are some of the show highlights this year?

I think we’re gonna be, hopefully doing a Facebook Live every morning, and

just kind of saying what’s going to be happening at the show that day

but if you can give us any secret behind the scenes tips.

Every day we have seminars that,

with a show wrist band they’re free, and we have Pam Wall who’s joining us from Florida.

She’s a world-renowned lifestyle cruising lifestyle expert and

she will be having seminars at the Seaman’s Church Library on everything

from cool products no one knows about to hurricane preparation import.

Her registrations are unbelievable right now so she’s very…

she has a following actually , she is great.

We have the “At The Helm – Confident Captain’s” at the helm

program and

I might sign up that! We just got a new Hinckley Picnic boat so

Perfect! so you could learn how to dock. There’s everything from

docking skills or learning how to sail or learning how to power boat and you can

register right at the show or in advance online and you’ll go out with a

experienced captain right out into the harbor.

It’s not just boats, I mean you can go and look for boats, all kinds of boats, but you can also go shopping.

Absolutely! I mean it’s a lifestyle and so you know you have

foul weather gear, you have nautical jewelry, you have fabric cushions for

your boat, if you already have one.

Anything nautical ! Anything boat related.

And all the toys that go with it!

Paddle boards and kayaks

Or if you need a new engine.

Or if you need a new engine, exactly!

There’s lots of those.

If you want to know about some of the specials that are happening at the show,

and any raffles that some of the booths are offering,

you can download the Buki app.

Yes,

You guys have partnered with LetsBuki.com

Yes!

That’s really fabulous.

It is and we’re really happy to have Buki on board and you can

you can prepare and plan for your visit to the show.

So you can know exactly where you want to go ahead of time, so that’s really great.

There’s wonderful sponsors

We will be doing samplings and we even have

an airplane that’s landing in the harbor.

WHAT?

pretty sure…

oh maybe we could work something out where I land with the airplane….

Thank you so much for the overview of the show. It’s going to be very exciting.

Thank you

There will be lots of people here and we look forward to seeing you on

Welcome to Newport Living and Lifestyles I’m Christon and today we are going to be

hosting the Virgo horoscope timeframe and joining us today is Karen Chabot

the astrologist and birthday boy Nick Liuzza. Welcome.

Thank you Christon, glad to be here.

Tell us a little bit about your business.

You should know right,

because Linear Title was a company you worked for back in the day and she was a great employee!

This is my boss, my old boss, by the way.

Great guy, Great guy.

Company was sold and so now formed a. new company.

Shhhhhhh don’t tell anyone… It’s called Bee Line..

coming soon

Okay, Don’t tell anyone…

Come soon to Newport Rhode Island.

Can you say anything about the company?

It’s in the financial services mortgage space.

That’s different for you.

Yeah it’ll be different, it’ll be fun.

It’ll be a lot like Linear Title and it’s gonna be a fun ride, maybe you’ll join again!

Maybe!

Okay good !

How is it gonna be different than maybe than some other ventures?

In the past I’ve always been more of

you know b2b and this is more b2c, so it’s more you know, it’s gonna be more

on that side of the world.

You’re also very techy, so everything is very…

Techy, does that mean geeky? Did you call me a geeky?

I am calling him a geek

I like to think I am a cool geek, I am a cool geek.

He is a cool geek.

Alright, thank you.

Most of your businesses have been very streamlined and very tech forward,

so I assume this one might be as well.

Yeah, in the past we took sort of like

manual processes and automated them in the financial services space and this

business will be very similar to that, except it’s more consumer focused.

We look forward to this.

Again, Please everybody, don’t tell anyone.

Are you ready to hear about the Virgo astrology ?

I can’t wait.

What is the time frame?

It is the 23rd to the 22nd

Of this month, so it was yesterday, or was it or two days ago ?

Well let’s just stick with the dates, because I don’t know when they’ll be watching.

oh, that’s right.

For 2019, August 23rd to September 22nd

Okay perfect perfect perfect.

I’m Karen Chabot and I have a website if you want to check it out.

www.KarynMahrieChabot.com and I’m an astrologer, I’m an ayurvedic health

practitioner and licensed massage therapist and I just bought an “Angel of Water”

I need a massage right now.

I have an “Angel of Water” colonic system I just bought too, so I’m really excited about that.

Okay, wait. what.

I am doing a lot of stuff here, because I just have a lot of passions. So the angel of water is a colon hydrotherapy FDA medical

device where it flushes out the colon, non-invasive, very easy and it’s aligned

with ayurvedic medicine. So yes when there’s a potato in the tailpipe the car won’t go!

I have got to leave this….

Is that your slogan?

That’s my tag line!

Omygosh, this is hilarious, I think we both turned beet red.

Potato in the pipe. P squared.

Who would have thunk, right?

There is nobody in Newport doing it, but me

So now you know where to go!

What are some characteristics of a Virgo?

Back to Virgos

Back to you!

I don’t have a potato in the pipeline

Actually Virgos are all about getting rid of the potato and the tailpipe, because there is a purification.

They’re very purity oriented so they like everything to be

pristine clean and tidy and maybe…. and this isn’t just for Virgo and I’m doing

tropical zodiac by the way, for any astrologers watching, even though I do

sidereal as well, this is tropical.

Thanks for clarifying.

He’s a Virgo Sun and so if you have a lot of Virgo in your chart wherever it

may be your moon or your ascendant this applies to you as well, and basically I

give a lot of information that applies to the general public, but for Virgo,

Virgo’s tend to really like to critique things, so they’re pure minded, pure hearted…

I think your doing a really good by the way, you doing a great job, this is really going well, yes.

Okay, well they make great food critics and great movie critics because they have an analytical

mind because mercury governs your chart so mercury is the planet of the intellect.

So instead of criticizing your spouse

and other people. You should be criticizing food and movies so you can

help the masses, right ? So you use your gift in a positive way.

Gotcha, You kind of left out the part about Virgo’s always been right.

They like to think that so you can go ahead and think that.

If that helps , I say go for it.

and clever . Yes clever and funny.

They’re also great lawyers and judges because of their judgmental, fair, analytical mind.

They can see the whole picture, very clearly

and the details jump out, where some other people might not see exactly what you see.

Those are good little ….. If you’re a lost Virgo and don’t know what you want

to do for your life, these are some things you can do.

Some direction.

Food critic, you said, judge, lawyer…

or running a ginormous business like yourself.

ooohh, that’s be cool.

Shhhh,… shhhh…..

On the other hand, they not only are great judges, lawyers and

mediators, but they’re also great holistic health practitioners, believe it or not.

You mean about the pipe in the pot or what was it?

Potato in the tailpipe, they might like a profession like that.

Yes actually, a lot of them probably are in profession like.

We’re gonna keep going back around to this, I think.

Anyway, so, if you want to do something besides law and food criticizing, or

movie critic stuff, you could go into the fields of alternative healing easy,

because that is a forte of Virgo.

I think I’m changing my business model right now.

Your gonna have massage on site.

yeah, good ideas… yeah, yep I want to do more piping.

Let’s talk about the symbol of Virgo. It’s symbol is the Virgin and

basically it’s not about anything sexual. It’s about purity, which is what virgins represent.

oh okay, cuz you know where our mind went.

Of course, right?! and also

its element is earth, it’s quality is fixed, and its color is green and it’s stone is emerald.

Do you find yourself surrounding yourself with these colors?

Yes, I like blue and emerald, for sure.

If you wear green it will give you strength.

mmm that’s good to know.

I can just see him now with a big o velvet king hat with the fuzzy and cape.

Sorry…

Its okay, I’m visualizing that.

So, right now what’s going on for love in

Virgo for the next 30 days or so, actually a little bit longer than that…

but if we focus on this month, we have Neptune in the 7th house which

governs relationships. So with Neptune transiting your seventh house,

it can cause delusion and smoke and mirrors, and a little , sometimes, big

deception involved. Now if we take the bright side of Neptune, it’s very dreamy and romantic.

So this is our month?

Well I’m just looking at this month, what I did was a prashna what they call “of the moment”.

I did a Virgo chart, and I read that moment, it was the 23rd yesterday.

and then from there, I pull this information, and Neptune was in the seventh house yesterday.

That’s cool

yes, in the prashna.

prashna , just means, question of the moment.

I’d like to say, that if you’re experiencing something dreamy and romantic that’s great.

If you’re experiencing something where you think someone’s being deceptive and you’re not sure, your hunches could be true, It could be right.

It’s something to think about.

So go with your gut.

Trust your instincts.

Go with your gut, hopefully it’s playing

out in the more dreamy and romantic side, and not the deception side.

Gotcha.

Now, also, we have the Sun sitting in the same house

as the passion planets, so now we’re talking about love and the passion

planets, govern love, Mars and Venus. When Mars and Venus and the Sun all sit in the same house,

What happens to Mars and Venus, if they become combust?

They can’t support, our life, basically, they burn up

so, what happens when Venus and Mars go combust?

In relationships it can either cause a relationship to be really fiery, feisty, and passionate, and fun, and lively or

Or? or…..

it can end the deal.

oh wow. Implode.

The Sun is a purifying planet.

So there is no in between? It’s like really good or really bad!

That is the thing here that I am trying to get across, it is not going to be this harmonious….

So there’s a fine line between it being great and it really sucking completely, huh?

Yes, It is very extreme right now and how it’s going to play out is depending on your freewill,

and as well as your own personal chart. Right now in the cosmos the passion

planets are on fire.

So how you work with that fire is up to you.

I have some ideas…

Can I ask you a question, how long was it fire going to go? a week, 2 days?

It’s starts to alleviate around the 14th but then they kind of dance back and forth into the next house,

so actually Venus and Mars go combust back and forth all the way until November.

ok good to know, good to know…

Good to know! So this is actually, not a punishment

it’s actually, if you look at it, in divine order , it’s a time and an

opportunity to purify a toxic relationship that no longer serves you.

The Sun comes in, burns it out, shines the light on it, so that you have to look at it.

It’s going to be so in-your-face that you have to make a decision so you

no longer stay stuck in toxic relationships, or it’s there to give you

a new relationship and ignite the passion.

So which way it goes is going to be personal.

This is so much more fun reading that little clip in the newspaper. About your sign.

So much better! I am getting this!

Sorry newspapers….

Here are some ways to get the passion planets to support you and play out your passions, so here we go

Be extra kind to all females, open doors for them, smile at them, forgive them and take your best girlfriend out to dinner just because.

Why I’m doing this is not just random good juju things.

It’s because Venus governs women, not only love, but it governs women.

So you’re not just making it up, there’s a method.

No I am not just making it up yeah this is truly these are ancient Shastras and the

ancient texts of remedial measures they call ‘Upayas” and I’m pulling it right from the texts.

Say that three times fast…

Donate to art museums and artistic venues because Venus not only

governs women, love, but it also governs beauty in the arts, so indulge in the

arts and donate to them. Do charitable things, if you want to donate your time

or donate your money or immerse yourself in the arts.

Cause that’s gonna make you feel better? or is it gonna make…. why?

It makes Venus smile down upon you when you

do Venusian and activities. It actually opens a portal and Venus can just shine its juju down.

It gives you more light.

You’re a big supporter of local charities. The Newport Art Museum.

My wife is on the board.

Oh that’s a great thing!

Yeah they are always looking for volunteers at the Newport Art Museum, to do those still poses.

Oh yes we did that.

If you want to do that, that would be a great thing to help your love life, believe it or not, indirectly.

What else? immerse yourself in creative projects in the serenity of nature,

so go somewhere beautiful.

Not just any old park, but go to a bee-utiful park, a very Venusian Park, we’ll call it.

Can I get my Webster dictionary out, wait, what did you say? Venu…

Venusian is your new word of the day.

It means that it is descriptive of Venus.

Something that Venus would be smiling down upon, like a beautiful place.

We have a lot of mansion parks.

Yeah go to a beautiful place.

It’s beautiful here, it’s gorgeous.

And beautiful flesh flowers, flesh flowers….

say that five times fast….

Fresh flowers! by your computer !

OH… I was like… what are flesh flowers….

And avoid sour tasting foods like lemon, limes, pickles and vinegar’s.

Why? because the sour quality governs Venus and it can throw you off, if you’re a pickle lover.

Well everyone of my vodka / soda’s has lemon and lime! so I got to switch it to something else.

Or don’t drink! Fat chance!

Keep it in check, in other words, you can have a pickle every now and then. Just during this time.

Question, Is this advice just for Virgos or for anyone?

Anyone right now, but especially Virgo, because I did a Virgo pressna.

Okay so stretch on a foam roller

and open your arms over your head. so you know those big foam rollers at the gym

and you stretch on them? You can open your heart up, because you want to open

the heart, because the Venus also will shine down on the heart, and you know

more love , more better, so opening the heart.

Mo better…. We’re about to sing a reggae song right now.

and keep cool because Sun is burning up those two

planets and we want to stay cool with certain foods not just our mind and

surrounding ourselves in air-conditioning but also eating cooling

foods like cucumbers, cilantro and avocado salad.

Wouldn’t that be a yummy right now with a little olive oil and salt?

Yes, with all of them together.

Well no lime and lemon..

Well maybe just a little.

Ok, now what’s going on with money? Let’s go into the money.

Most important piece.

Yes, so Jupiter and Venus are the planets that govern money.

Remember I told you that Venus and Mars govern love while Jupiter is the bank

and Venus gives you the opulence that money provides.

Those two planets we’re looking at right now, for what is happening with money.

Since Venus is so close to the Sun literally sitting in the same house,

Venus isn’t gonna help us right now.

ok so that’s ok we got Jupiter and Jupiter

is going to support us, and it has station direct on August 12, so

everything is starting to go, systems go, which is good, green light.

It was a little bit held back for about 3 or 4 months prior to that.

Yes so what’s gonna happen here with Venus stationing direct and for Virgos?

It’s a great time actually for transformations and financial

institutions and the state of affairs regarding the stock market and

investments in all the US dollar.

Hold it, hold it , hold it… that’s really interesting because my new company is going through a financial transaction right now.

There ya go!

This is the perfect month for that, right?

This is Perfect.

How’d that happen? It’s just coincidence, I guess, right ?

It is meant to be.

That is really interesting.

You sort of wrote for it.

Cheers! That sort of blew my mind a little bit.

Did you know that?!

No, I don’t even know you !

We just met !

I know you now!

You better drink that, if you cheers, you gotta drink, good luck.

So let me continue before I lose my train of thought.

okay so the changes might be a pinch at first but what may unfold is gonna be

for the world’s highest and best so not just personally but globally what’s

happening here is there’s gonna be a change in the financial picture because

Are you saying that China deals gonna get worked out?

It could actually, it could…

We can’t foresee the future, but we could use some astrological facts.

We do have Rahu in the eleventh house of charitable gaines.

Which is Rahu is the foreigner so foreign money is good right for Virgo.

That is very interesting.

Yes so something good would come from that.

Moving on, oh I forgot to say twelve away from where Jupiter sitting are the

malefic planets of Saturn k2 and Pluto which means that the US dollar and a

financial Institute’s like banks all over the world can go through a radical

change right now this is interesting watch.

That is interesting.

because twelve away usually means endings so what endings on what whatever

is twelve away it’s the bank Jupiter hmm okay so what can we do for

Jupiter to smile down upon us and give us more money. Here we go,

Donate to the Boston Children’s Hospital, why? because Jupiter governs children.

Offer or help teach children.

Help out at a soup kitchen, because Jupiter also governs selfless service.

yeah this is good stuff here, this advice you’re giving right now, is good.

Yes yeah it’s all good stuff, I mean you don’t have to go do any mantras and

hooga booga stuff, you just go do.

Hooga Booga. Hooga Booga

Hooga Booga, The official term, actually, by the way.

It’s an official zodiac term.

Clean out your closets and donate to Goodwill because you’re

donating, any donating and charitable stuff doing it right now, is a good time

for more money to come into your life, because what you give comes back to you.

That goes through September 14th, by the way or through the whole month of September ?

Through the whole month of September and even a little further,

because I think Jupiter is actually changing around November.

So all the way through to November.

I’m guessing now, now I’m forgetting, but I think its November.

Be of service to one of your high school teachers your

favorite college professor, just maybe write them a note, even just say thank

you, I really want you to know I enjoyed that year with you, just something nice,

because Jupiter also governs the Guru or the great teacher.

Jupiter’s busy man. money… he is got a lot going on…

Children, gurus, banks…

We thought we were busy!

it is governing a lot of stuff.

okay and handicapped people

sometimes you’re just in a rush, and you don’t want to help that handicapped

person across the street, this is your time to do it.

Just pick them up pick up and carry them across the street.

Open doors for them

Piggy back.

What’s going on with career in the Virgo chart so mercury is the ruler of your

chart it’s igniting your tenth house of career and it also is igniting the 12th

house of International Affairs which also is a house of liberated endings so

yes you could get that money that money from international China the China money

could come in still because it’s international but it’s also a house of

endings.

It’s bizarre because I got to tell you so I’m involved in a financial transaction right now that’s Canadian.

Oh interesting.

Yeah that’s weird. Yeah it’s a totally separate from the Bee Line thing. That’s weird.

Your not usually involved in international deals?

I never get involved in international stuff. And one’s going on right now too.

yeah this is your time right now.

This is good stuff right here. Did you prepare for this?

It took me 2 hours! I love it though !

I am a hidden geek. I am a little secret geek.

I am surrounded.

Virgos could focus on foreign relations, dreaminess, creative productions, but also

give their resignations since we have something igniting the twelfth house

there could be, in jobs, a resignation that is for the highest and best for

your liberation, so it’s not a doom and gloom resignation, kind

of thing, but it’s a time for endings, purifications.

All good stuff and new beginnings. so a good time to begin a new so if

you’re thinking of leaving your job this could be the time, if you’re thinking of

a new job, and what do I do, and when do I do it? Well the new moon is a great time

to really just start on it. Looking in the newspapers, listening for signs and

that new moon is happening on August 30th, so if you want something new

in your career, even expansion in your career, which could happen now, as well,

because Jupiter’s expecting into that house, then here are some things you

can do for the moon, because the moon, I saw was sitting in the tenth house

when I pull the prashna. Let’s do some things for the moon, what’s the moon, moon

governs mother, call your mom and tell her you love her,

bake her some cookies, tell your grandmother you love her, any mother like authority

figures, if you have a female boss, bring them their favorite cappuccino

or latte, just just as much goodness as you can toward females in authority

figures, or nourishing type of females, if you have a friend that sort of like a

mother to you, she was always there for you, that you could be nice to her as well.

Practice self-care and be your own mother, so a great thing to do is

schedule a massage, go for your walk, do your yoga , do whatever it is that makes

you feel nurtured and supported and loved.

What do you do to nurture yourself?

I walk. I like walking.

Clears your brain.

I can moon walk really well too.

That I should have included , a moon walk, do your moon walking. That’s a great idea.

When you moon walk 4 miles, it gets a little tiring.

You have amazing calves though, I bet.

That is so funny, okay, so moon also

governs the ocean, so what do you want to do for the ocean? why not donate to

charities that are involved with cleaning up the ocean and the beaches.

Go for a daily swim just to immerse yourself in the ocean and be so

grateful to be surrounded by the ocean.

OOO cold. They have wetsuits.

I’m from Louisiana man, we don’t get in the water here.

I’m from Texas, I get it.

There’s one day at one day, September 30th

Are you kidding me, I live here! I have to get in every day.

We would need a wetsuite.

A wet suit? oh you guys are too funny .

Alright so there’s two more things you can do for the moon and to propitiate new ideas for your career.

Nourish your family with a sumptuous meal at least one this month

find it like whatever that recipe is their favorite meal and make it sumptuous.

And then be more loving and forgiving in general. Just embody that.

And that’s it!

That is great stuff! That is really good.
